Steps:

Add the cider vinegar, ketchup, molasses, Worcestershire, and water and whisk all together until thoroughly combined.

SAUTéED BEETS WITH PASTA, SAGE AND BROWN BUTTER
Give a cook a beet, and he'll probably do one of two things with it: Reject it for fear of turning the kitchen into a juicy red crime scene, or roast it and serve it with goat cheese. I can take this marriage or leave it, but even if you love it, you must admit that it only scratches the surface of what beets have to offer. More than half the time that I prepare beets, I begin by shredding them in a food processor. After that, you can serve them raw with a simple dressing, or you can stir-fry them in a skillet to brown them slightly, which brings out their sweetness like nothing else. This recipe employs the latter technique (with the addition of sage) then calls for tossing the beets with pasta. A finishing of grated Parmesan is a salty counterpoint to the caramelized sweetness of the beets.

SWEET-AND-SOUR BEET SALAD
This salad was served daily for years at the famous Griswold's Inn in Claremont, California before it closed in the late 1990s. My family thinks it's as good on the holiday table as it is at summer picnics. If you're cooking for two, don't shy away from this recipe-the beets keep well and actually taste better the second and third days!

Tips:
- Choose the right beets: Smaller beets tend to be sweeter and more tender than larger ones. Look for beets that are firm and smooth, with no blemishes or bruises.
- Trim the beets properly: Cut off the tops and bottoms of the beets, leaving about an inch of stem. This will help prevent the beets from bleeding when you cook them.
- Cook the beets until they are tender: Beets can be cooked in a variety of ways, but the most common method is to boil them. Bring a pot of water to a boil, then add the beets and cook for 20-30 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
- Make the ruby sauce: While the beets are cooking, you can make the ruby sauce. This sauce is made with red wine vinegar, sugar, and spices. Simply combine all of the ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a simmer. Let the sauce simmer for 10 minutes, or until it has thickened slightly.
- Serve the beets: Once the beets are cooked, drain them and let them cool slightly. Then, peel the beets and slice them into quarters. Arrange the beets on a serving platter and drizzle with the ruby sauce. Serve immediately.
Conclusion:
Ruby-sauced beets are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The sweet and tangy sauce complements the earthy flavor of the beets, and the dish is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a new side dish to try, give ruby-sauced beets a try.
